Hi JRV and thank you for the photos! The valve I am talking about is the one in photos 1 and 2 (white plastic).

When looking at photo 2, the RIGHT side of the valve should go to the bottom of the charcoal canister, correct? The LEFT side goes up to the rear of the engine compartment and connects to a check valve, I presume.

Thank you for your time in taking these photos - as always I am reminded what a great asset this site is!!!

Hi Anthony,

you are correct. Left to check valve, right to cannister.

Glad to help.

Thanks again. I was amazed at how well these evap lines stayed after 26 years. The beefy OD of these lines definitely contributed to this. It's too bad you can't find these anymore (only 12mm OD, I looked everywhere).

I replaced mine, but examining the insides of these lines revealed that they were not at all cracked. As hard as a hockey puck, but not that bad.

Considering they are fuel-related though, I went ahead and changed them to be safe.
